第一段：
January 21, 2010 will go down as a dark day in the history of American
democracy, and its decline. The editors of the New York Times did not
exaggerate when they wrote that the Supreme Court decision that day "strikes
at the heart of democracy" by having "paved the way for corporations to use
their vast treasuries to overwhelm elections and intimidate elected
officials into doing their bidding" -- more explicitly, for permitting
corporate managers to do so, since current laws permit them to spend
shareholder money without consent. |
